Given the protracted latency of carcinogenesis, this study examines whether historical changes in tobacco taxation and smoke-free laws are associated with reductions in BC disease burden and mortality in the United States.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>METHODS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Smoking-attributable BC mortality and DALY data, and federal and state tobacco taxation data were differenced as time series to achieve stationarity. Cross-correlation analysis identified optimal lag times. A semilogarithmic multivariable linear regression was used to estimate the percent change in BC outcomes per 1% increase in tobacco tax. Analyses were adjusted for national health expenditures and stratified by state.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The median lag time between tobacco tax changes and smoking-attributable BC mortality was 17 years, whereas the lag to DALYs was 24 years. National-level regression showed no significant association between taxation and BC mortality (\u20130.09%,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .64) or DALYs (1.77%,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .051). However, 22 states exhibited significant reductions in mortality, with the greatest observed in Arkansas (\u20133.64%,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; .001), California, and Indiana. Sixteen states showed significant DALY reductions, led by California (\u20134.68%). The implementation of smoke-free laws alone was not associated with decreases in smoking-attributable BC mortality and DALY.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSION<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Tobacco taxation is significantly associated with long-term reductions in smoking-attributable BC mortality and DALYs at the state level, but not nationally. These findings demonstrate the importance of adjunctive localized public health policy and the delayed impact of tobacco control measures on cancer outcomes. Further investigation is warranted to understand the mechanisms driving state-level variability and to inform targeted prevention strategies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1200\/op-25-00780","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,2]],"date-time":"2026-03-02T20:59:35Z","timestamp":1772485175000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1200\/crossmark","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Temporal Association of US Tobacco Taxation on Smoking Attributable Bladder Cancer Mortality and Disability-Adjusted Life Years"],"prefix":"10.1200","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1251-758X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Ryan","family":"Wong","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Dr Kiran C Patel College of Osteopathic Medicine, Nova Southeastern University, Fort Lauderdale, FL"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0757-0885","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Richard S.","family":"Matulewicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Urology Service, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1971-8568","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Ruchika","family":"Talwar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, TN"},{"name":"Department of Population Health, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, TN"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Adam O.","family":"Goldstein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC"},{"name":"Department of Family Medicine, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3500-8849","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Marc A.","family":"Bjurlin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC"},{"name":"Department of Urology, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"233","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_7_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.2020.17598"},{"key":"e_1_3_7_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0391560319887327"},{"key":"e_1_3_7_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/EDE.0000000000000964"},{"key":"e_1_3_7_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/UPJ.0000000000000743"},{"key":"e_1_3_7_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2105\/AJPH.85.9.1218"},{"key":"e_1_3_7_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jamahealthforum.2024.4445"},{"key":"e_1_3_7_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e0250285","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0250285","article-title":"Impact of smoke-free ordinance strength on smoking prevalence and lung cancer incidence","volume":"16","author":"Nguyen RH","year":"2021","unstructured":"Nguyen RH, Vater LB, Timsina LR, et al: Impact of smoke-free ordinance strength on smoking prevalence and lung cancer incidence.
